The user manual of the desktop-CNC
Notice:
1. This machine should be used with the PC parallel port and controlled by Mach 3 or other software.
The PC parallel port should work in condition of the EPP mode, the setup of the EPP mode should be
applied on the main board BIOS.
2. You'd better use the PC to control the machine, especially for this machine and do not install other
software if conditions permit. And please do not use the Laptop to control the machine, the battery of
some laptops will impact the pulse signal of the machine and the voltage of some parallel port is very low,
it will cause the lost of the signal.
Warn:
You should setup the software correctly, it will make the machine works well. If you do not do it well and
try to run the machine, it may damage the machine or cause the danger.
When you install or setup the machine, please do not turn on the control box, it may cause some
damages.
Please do not put the connectors on the control box, when it is power on. You should regulate the
spindle as the low speed when you want to restart it. The interval of the open/close button time should be
at least 30s, when you restart the spindle or turn on the control box again, otherwise it will cause the
damages of the control box.
Our machine is 220V, when it is power on, please do not open the control box, do not touch the
wiring connectors and not touch the running cutters, please wear the glasses or mask to protect yourself.
1. Open the Mach 3 file, double click the "Mach3xxxxx.Exe"to start.

Remark: (1). If you want to use the 4th axis(A axis), you can setup the A axis data as follows: (2).”Dir Low Active”...
- Page 12 3. Try to use your CNC 1. First let us to learn this machine, below take 3020 for example, The full kit has the machine(the Frame), the electrical control box, X,Y,Z stepper motors, the spindle and the spare parts box(it contains the 4 pcs presser feet, 5 pcs test bits, 1 pair of spare carbon brush, 1 pcs fuse pipe,ancethe spanner of the spindle, the 6 hexagonal spanner and the nuts and screws).
- Page 13 (1) Our machine is made of the aluminum alloy, if you drop it from the top on the floor or hard hit, it will damage the machine. Please put this machine on the stable desk, the thin desk may cause more resonance when it is running.
- Page 14 2. Yourself-checking The aim of the checking is to make sure that the electrical control box and the machine are well wired and all axis can be controlled. At first, power off the spindle and the driver power, “o” is off, “l” is on, and regulate the spindle in this safe position(see the photo below).
- Page 15 move,continue to adjust clockwise,spindle will run more and more quickly. Remark: If you face the spindle, the clockwise direction is the right direction. If you find the direction is anticlockwise, please power off the spindle and exchange the two connectors will be fine. Notice: (1).When the spindle is power-on, the voltage between the two connectors of the spindle is 90VDC, when the spindle is running, please do not touch the cutters and wear the glasses and...
- Page 16 E-contact us If all the axis can move, please check the direction of the axis coordinate is right(see below). If you find the axis which move wrong direction please change the setup as Page10 green letters.
- Page 17 PS: you can use the keyboard to control the direction of the axis, and also you can use the manual control keyboard of Mach 3 by using the mouse to control the movement of the X, Y, Z axis. Press the”TAB”key on the keyboard then it will pop-up the MACH manual control interface as the figure below.
- Page 18 Now the test of the Mach 3 communication with the machine is over. If it still can not realized the manual control, please do as follows: (1)Uninstall the Mach3 and use other versions of the Mach 3 to test(because some parallel port is not compatible with MACH software) (2)Check the PC parallel port is fine or change another PC to test it.
- Page 19 First: Assembly the materials (1)Find a soft material about 12CM*12CM, like PVC. WOOD,PMMA or other plastic material (2)Fix the board on the working table as below, notice the screw and nuts should be tight but do not make the T slotted board out of shape. Second:Cutter trace unload running test without the cutter (1)Copy the document you want to engrave to the desktop of your PC, and then open the Mach 3 Mill---start the G code and import the document you want to engrave, also you can use the Mach...
- Page 20 (2)Import the G code of” 雕 ”, then it will display on the PC as below (3)Power on the control box driver, move the spindle tool bit to the left-bottom of the material board by manual control the three axis, the area in the red circle(the image below)is the safe area. The left bottom red-green WCS arrowhead above is the original point, move the spindle bit (without cutter) to this point.
- Page 21 0.5MM, so it will work twice the same trace, when it idle running, please check whether it will touch the clamping board, if so, please recheck the original point of the engraving, Otherwise it will damage the cutter, the material even the machine. Notice:when doing holed-out work, please put a no-use flat board below the material to avoid the damage of the working station 3.Engraving test with the cutter bits...
- Page 22 The engraving steps: (1) Power on the drive and move the X, Y, axis to the original point by hand put the Z axis down to the material board, distance is about 1 CM with material board (2)Power off the drive on the control box, and put a small piece of paper on the original point and move the Z axis by hand, and put the Z axis down, when the bit point is closed to the paper, you can feel the paper is touched by the bit point but the bit point is not touch the material, this tool setting tolerance is about 0.05MM(if you need more precise, you can buy a professional tool presenter)
- Page 23 speed,high efficiency.if low cutting required or hard aluminium(non-stick bits aluminium),also can choose two spiral flute bits for metal (3)Small precision 3D engraving in the non-metal material,we suggest use radiused bottom engraving bits (4)Large 3D engraving in soft wood,MDF board,native wood,PVC,Acrylic we suggest use one or two spiral flute ball bits (5)Engraving metal,it need use one or two spiral flute bits for metal,flat bottom engraving bits for steel (6)Engraving for MDF board,solid wood, composite board, plywood we suggest use straight flute bits...
